finally decided to do the swap
Well I finally decided to go ahead and do the swap on my 69 swb. I'm a towtruck driver and few weeks ago I had to go pick up a 2003 suburban z71 that rolled over on the freeway. The owners didn't have full cover insurance so they just left it at my yard so I gave my boss $300 for the chevy and towed it home. Now time to start taking it apart. Sorry if the pics are to big.

Re: finally decided to do the swap
You sure you dont want to just fix the Suburban? Looks like it would buff out?

Re: finally decided to do the swap
Nice score for 300. You will probably make that back in scrap metal
